"The Ranlett Tool Museum"

Narrated by Mark Herman; Photography & Videos by Sylvia Sullivan & Marca Daley; Videographer - Marca Daley

Located at the Swift-Daley Complex, right next to the Eastham Post Office, the Ranlett Tool Museum invites visitors, young and old, to try their hand at not only identifying old tools but using them, too. 

In this short film, Curator Mark Herman takes you on a tour of the museum, explaining how it got its start; describing just some of the many old tools in our collection; and showing highlights of our year, with the 4th grade visit, Tool Discovery Day, and the creativity of our blacksmiths at the working forge.  

Coming Soon!

Please note, our presentations are subject to change due to circumstances beyond our control.
